Greenpeace New Zealand Substantive Submission on Zero Carbon Bill<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Key Recommendations<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • New Zealand\u2019s goal must be to limit global warming to no more than 1.5o C by the end of this century. This goal should be stated in the Zero Carbon Bill.<\/li>\n
  • New Zealand\u2019s climate law must be fair, ambitious and consistent with the latest climate science and international frameworks, such as the Paris Agreement, by including all greenhouse gases. <\/li>\n
  • A target of net-zero by 2040 better reflects the latest science and the need to achieve rapid, substantial reductions in emissions than does a target of net-zero by 2050.<\/li>\n
  • Legally-binding climate targets should be legislated now, and a Climate Commission established whose role should be to devise legally-binding budgets. <\/li>\n
  • The primary focus of five-year budgets should be gross emissions cuts, while offsets should occur as a secondary or separately reported budget.<\/li>\n
  • The ZCA should adopt a \u2018firewall\u2019 principle: that New Zealand\u2019s targets must be achieved by actual cuts in our own emissions, and offsets within New Zealand, not through the purchase of international carbon credits.<\/li>\n
  • To achieve significant gross cuts in methane and nitrous oxide emissions requires reducing ruminant livestock numbers and cutting synthetic fertiliser use.<\/li>\n
  • While cross-party consensus is a desirable long-term goal, any such consensus should not be prioritised over the achievement of strong climate law today. <\/li>\n
  • Adaptation should not be the responsibility of the Climate Commission.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
